The two major types of Cannabis plants are Indica and Sativa. Indica strains generally provide a sense of deep body relaxation while sativa strains tend to provide a more energizing experience.

Hybrid strains occur when expert breeders select the best sativa and indica strains and crossbreed them. Hybrids are frequently bred with other hybrids and can be sativa or indica dominant, and will have similar effects to their dominant strain.
